To Do: Cover Self in Felt

* Mr. Bjork/artist Matthew Barney talks with Nancy Spector (curator of contemporary art at the Guggenheim) about the influence of Joseph Beuys. This free event takes place at the Hirshhorn. Free advance ticketing starts at 5:45PM, talk begins at 7PM. “Overwhelming interest” is expected and we suggest you try to attend because the Hirshhorn hates the public and isn’t hosting another event until April. [Hirshhorn]
* Cris Beam discusses Transparent, her erotic fanfiction about male-to-female “transgirls.” Free at 7PM. [P&P]
* Andy Zipf, DC’s Ricky Martin, at the Black Cat with Shapiro. $7 at 9PM. [Black Cat]
